Thinking about double denim?

Hello Loviesssss,

This is one post i have been planning to do for a while, i am glad i've finally gotten round to it.


I love the look of the double denim ensemble. It can range anywhere from classic and all-American to edgy and eclectic.


To get you in gear to give this look a try, I've come up with a couple of style tips that will have you mixing and matching denim like a professional in no time:


1. Two-Toned: One of the most important things to know about wearing denim head-to-toe is that your shades of blue don't have to match. In fact, I think it keeps the look more interesting when lighter denim is paired with a darker wash. Throw on a pair of lighter boyfriend jeans, a basic tee, and a dark denim jacket for a two-toned look that will actually appear fashionably put together.

2. Distressed & Clean: Similar to trying a two-toned denim look, mixing distressed pieces with cleaner cuts is another way to rock the trend. Combine your go-to skinnies with a distressed chambray shirt (buttoned all the way up and tucked in) for a cool spin on this classic look.

3. Element of surprise: Don't limit your style by thinking that denim pieces can only come in the form of basic tops and bottoms. Fashion forecasts have shown everything from knee-length blue jean pencil skirts to denim designer handbags. Make the most of the trend this season by layering a collared chambray shirt under a plaid sweater or throwing a denim vest over a sweater dress.

4. Try the double denim ensemble in other colors.

Finally, if you feel the above rules are difficult to follow, just make sure the colors always contrast and never match.

As always, we have loads of pictures to help you style this trend.


Thanks for always reading.


xoxo.
